Students will read more if they are comfortable. I teach Tier 3 supportive reading. My students are struggling and reluctant readers. I try to foster a love for reading by using high interest material. But.... How many of us read sitting upright in a hard plastic chair? My classroom has a cold tile floor. This is not inviting or conducive to promoting reading for enjoyment. I want my students to be able to spread out and get comfortable when reading. With these mats, my students will be able to get out of those chairs and get cozy to enjoy reading. Reading will be more natural and relaxed, and hopefully this will carry over to reading at home, too!
